Perpendicular lines refers to a pair of straight lines that intercept each other. The slopes of this lines are opposite reciprocal, meaning that it's multiplication is -1.
On this case they give you the equation of a line and a point, and is asked to find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given one, and that passes through this point.
-2x+3y=-6 Add 2x in both sides
3y=2x-6 Divide by 3 in both sides to isolate y
y=2/3x-6/3
The slope of the given line is 2/3, which means that the slope of a line perpendicular to this one, needs to be -3/2. Now you need to find the value of b or the y-intercept by substituting the given point into the formula y=mx+b, where letter m represents the slope.
y=mx+b Substitute the given point and the previous slope found
-2=(-3/2)(6)+b Combine like terms
-2=-9+b Add 9 in both sides to isolate b
7=b
The equation that represents the line perpendicular to -2x+3y=-6 and that passes through the point (6,-2), is y=-3/2x+7.
Answer:
Original Price = 160
Sale Price =40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Original Price be x and Sale Price be y
y=1/4 of x (Equation 1)
x=120+y (Equation 2)
Put value of x from equation 2 in equation 1
y= (1/4)*(120+y)
y=120/4 + y/4
y-y/4=30
3y/4=30
y=30*4/3
y=40
Put value of y in Equation 2
x=120+40
x=160
